Living Reviews in Relativity, 1998 The problem of finding the quantum theory of the gravitational field, and thus understanding what is quantum spacetime, is still open. One of the most active of the current approaches is loop quantum gravity. Loop quantum gravity is a mathematically well-

Matter in Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2012 Loop quantum gravity, a non-perturbative and manifestly background free, quantum theory of gravity implies that at the kinematical level the spatial geometry is discrete in a specific sense.

Loop Quantum Gravity Phenomenology: Linking Loops to Observational Physics [PDF]
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2012 Research during the last decade demonstrates that effects originating on the Planck scale are currently being tested in multiple observational contexts.

Quantum reduced loop gravity and the foundation of loop quantum cosmology [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2016 Quantum reduced loop gravity is a promising framework for linking loop quantum gravity and the effective semiclassical dynamics of loop quantum cosmology. We review its basic achievements and its main perspectives, outlining how it provides a quantum description of the Universe in terms of a cuboidal graph which constitutes the proper framework for ...

Newtonian gravity in loop quantum gravity [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 We apply a recent argument of Verlinde to loop quantum gravity, to conclude that Newton's law of gravity emerges in an appropriate limit and setting. This is possible because the relationship between area and entropy is realized in loop quantum gravity when boundaries are imposed on a quantum spacetime.

Loop quantum gravity and cosmological constant
Physics Letters B, 2021 A one-parameter regularization freedom of the Hamiltonian constraint for loop quantum gravity is analyzed. The corresponding spatially flat, homogenous and isotropic model includes the two well-known models of loop quantum cosmology as special cases. The

Choice of connection in loop quantum gravity [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2001 We investigate the quantum area operator in the loop approach based on the Lorentz covariant hamiltonian formulation of general relativity. We show that there exists a two-parameter family of Lorentz connections giving rise to Wilson lines which are eigenstates of the area operator. For each connection the area spectrum is evaluated. In particular, the
